Trump's Ediface Complex

He wanted it big.   He wanted lots of gold, lots of marble.   He wanted visitors awestruck by his architectural expansion of the country’s symbolic seat of power. Sound like anybody we know?   Well, you'd be right, in a way ... but as the saying goes, "there's nothing new under the sun".  To contin...

Re: What do you think of this?

I remember seeing ads for plans to build something like what you're describing in the back pages of Popular Mechanics back in the 1960s. Or you could maybe find an old one of these — a PPV ('People Powered Vehicle') from the mid-1970s https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/87/YellowPPV.jpe...

Re: Happy Lee's Surrender Day

Well, rapping women is even worse, and trotting out the old ‘credo of all losers’ the time excuse doesn’t make it any less pathetic. ‘I’m just so tired, I want to quit’ is for losers. It’s not over until we say it’s over. :) By any chance, is your last name 'Blutarsky', lib? https://y.yarn.co/2ef89...

Note: When I found this post, I also found Trump's most current rant, about "An Illegal Alien Criminal from Haiti" and it includes an attached video showing a man killing a woman with a hammer. He’s desperate to try to reclaim some glory and support from his MAGAts so he’s resorting to more demoniz...

Re: Trump threatens the Pope

Sounds about par for the course for Trump — punching below his weight class.   In the last two months he's attacked Venezuela and Iraq — neither of which could be seriously considered a military equal to the United States...   and now he's bullying the Pope and the Catholic Church, who Trump figures...

Re: The Trump-Axis war on America continues

I will never vote for any candidate or party that proposes to abandon the most helpless Americans. I will not do that, whatever the consequences may be. And as far as being informed, I will be informed by the time elections arrive, or I will not vote at all, which is what happened last time. "Evil ...

Re: If You Want to Commit a Crime in Maryland, Hire an 11 yr old....

Maybe they can't be "arrested", but surely they could be detained as being 'juvenile delinquents' before being remanded into the custody of the juvenile system. I'd normally say 'remanded into the custody of the parental unit'. but I'll bet a dollar to a dime that these kids are the product of a sin...

Re: Ciboire à deux réservoirs, is EVERYONE a sexual predator?

Well quite so. But the issue was a proposal to name a public street after C Chavez and some folks did object to celebrating a person who'd (allegedly) done a lot of bad things. Honoring people with feet of clay don''t seem to bother MAGA-rats.   Here in Wisconsin — Washington County, to be precise,...
